Missed oppertunity
The main issue with BITE is that the actors (and their dialogue; let’s be fair) just can’t sell this material. There’s so little chemistry between Casey and her fiancé that the numerous challenges they face (of which the titular bite is just one) don’t really register. Lines of dialogue like “he wants kids more than anything, and you don’t!” make you wish they had left some of these details to be discovered in subtext, which would have been perfectly adequate and more satisfying as a viewer: http://www.cutprintfilm.com/reviews/bite/
